Madame Blavatsky - The Mother of Modern Spirituality

The outer archives are busy

by Gary Lachman

About this book

Lachman does not bring many new facts, apart from describing the conclusion on the investigation that lead the British Psychic Society to label their own report on HPB as invalid, biased and null. The same is true about other instances and newspapers interviews that were detrimental do HPB. Basically all charges and accusations turned to be false, biased and null. Lachman does not, in my opinion, fully embrace or takes advantage of this aspect of his book - which would turn this bio more necessary, among many others written on HPB's life and works. His adamant will to appear "neutral" is a center that pervades all the text. And that drains great part of what could be a great book, more faithfull to it's subtitle: "Mother of Modern Spirituality".
